with a layer of water and the polishing rouge,
and the glass is again laid upon it, and kept
in motion in the same way as in the fine
grinding. Thus each surface of the two
glasses is speedily brought to high polish.
Then the glass is tested to find the defects.
1t is set up on edge, facing luminous point
at distance equal to ten or fifteen times the
focal length The image of the point formed
in the focus of the glass is then examined
with an eye piece of high power. The glass
is then taken back to the tool and the polish
ing process is recommended, only pressing
upon those parts of the glass where it has to
be ground away. 1t is tried again, and again
goes to the polisher.
So far no extraordinary skill on the part of
the workman is required; but as the size of
the glass is increased the process becomes
more difficult and tedious, and the difficulties
of judging what the defects are increase enor-
mously.
The telescope is by no means finished with
the glass. 1t must be tubed properly. 1t
must admit of being moved by clock work in
such way that as the earth revolves from
west to east the telescope shall revolve from
east to west with exactly the same velocity,
and thus point steadily at the same star. The
details Of the machinery for attaining these
and other results have required large
amount Of thought and care.
